What have I done???
I feel guilty for taking advantage of Heather's mistake . . .
I feel guilty for spending way too much money on microfiber . . .
I feel guilty for having NO willpower.
So much mental anguish over TOWELS!! I can't resist the fluffiness!!

Just checking once more before I finalize my order.
Sorry... no bulk deals on the glass cloths.

Hey, don't feel guilty about my mistake... I may regret it right now but in the long run it'll work out... these MFs will just feed your addiction and make you want, no, NEED, to come back and buy more later! (thanks for thinking of me though! )

Unfortunately, it's hard to say for sure. Basically, we've designated an undisclosed number of each of our microfibers to be part of this sale. Once each quantity of these designated cloths runs out, then that's it!

That said, I'm fairly confident that we'll still have most everything next week. I just can't guarantee it because I don't know how many we'll sell between now and then.

PM sent.

Great! Now you've really fed the frenzy We'll be waiting in long lines.. uh elbowing each other to use up your bandwidth with on-line orders. I see stockpiles of microfiber going out to compounds all over the country...

As I found out you have to click the "button" next to the $22.46 price and then "Add to Cart"

My "Sampler Platter" -- along with various other assorted items -- showed up on my doorstep this morning...woo hoo!

The best part is that my wife is out of town today, so she wasn't here to spot it and exclaim "MORE stuff for the MINI? Not ANOTHER box from DP!"

You should be a marriage counselor.

"Just lie - it's easier that way" is worth at LEAST $200/hr.

I stand corrected. I apologize for impuning your integrity in such a manner.

Correction:
"Just be sneaky and hide the truth. It's easier that way". Also good $200/hr marriage advice.

Hell, wish I had know that 20 years ago.

We've sometimes wondered if we shouldn't stamp the boxes with the DP logo... that way you could pretend it's a gift for your wife (hmm... except then you'd have to come up with a real one I suppose!)

Ok, the sale is now over... MiniMaybee just left the store with several boxes full o' microfiber and cleaned us out!

Don't worry... I'm just kidding! The sale is still on!

It's hard to tell for sure at this point, but my guess is that the sale will probably go through the middle of next week or so. (it's over once our designated amount for each MF has dwindled to nothing)

*Note that the Try Me MF Bundle (aka the Sampler Platter ala BlimeyCabrio) will still be available after our big microfiber sale. The price will go up quite a bit from what it is now but it will still be discounted relative to buying the MF individually.


Thanks for all the orders, guys! (meaning guys and gals, of course!)

-Heather

Just got home. Guess what was waiting for me !!??!!

Yep... my order of the Sampler Platter of towels ! I got a little light-headed while going through my new stuff. But don't worry... I'm okay now.

Geez, I feel like I just stole something. So much so, I'm not sure I'll sleep for all the guilt !! :impatient

And to top it off, two brand spanking new bottles... one Swirl and one Epic. And now, Heather didn't throw those in for free. She doesn't love me THAT much.

OMG I'm gonna love these freaking weirdo starfish mitts.

I even had to use a few already (pre-washing, which I know isn't optimal) and they ROCK - the way they just become an extension of your hand and you can feel the car through them - but still very soft and plush...

I can't believe this isn't just what everyone sells/uses. They're so darn obvious once you use one...

People - if you haven't bought them, BUY THEM...

(but now what will I do with all my OTHER towels?)
